‘Geodiversity for science and society’ 

"Whilst climate and biodiversity are now routinely included in international conventions and policy briefings, geodiversity has been largely overlooked". 

A new edition of the Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society (A) (Vol.382, Issue 2269) focuses on the role of geodiversity in sustainability and human well-being, biodiversity science and nature conservation, and tourism at geoheritage sites; also, providing novel methods and frameworks for measuring and monitoring geodiversity worldwide, and providing an update on geoconservation in international policy.  See here.

There are several interesting free-access papers, among them one by Prof Murray Gray, a member of the NGP.
